Hands-on support
Hi there! I'm Riccardo, an Italian UX Design Lead living in Tokyo since 2010.
With 13+ years of relevant experience in UX Design, Interaction Design, and Design Thinking, I spent most of my career in Japan, designing for startups as well as big corporations. Nowadays I work as Lead UX Designer in Amazon Japan, previously I've been leading design in Delivery Hero APAC.
I founded the TGD community, a place where designers living in Tokyo can share their experiences.
I can help with portfolio reviews, career advice, product critique, and strategy, especially for those who plan to move to Tokyo and work as designers.
